Their main defense is that Obama gave them their mission, and they're just doing the same job under Trump.

> As we have stated previously, the scope and goals of our work did not change in any material way from when the project was defined during the prior administration.

Perhaps that is a good response directly to the original article (which I have not read). But this defense is silly.

They should not continue to support a cause just because it used to be good. If it is now bad, and they still support it, then they support a bad thing. No matter what they claim their values are.

The correct thing to do would have been to stop working for ICE. ...or do it now
